摘要:

我们使用HARPS来测量低质量恒星tau Cet的振荡。虽然数据受到仪器噪声的影响,但我们已经能够提取振荡的主要特征。我们发现τ Cet的振荡幅度约为太阳的一半,并且模式寿命略短于太阳。大的频率分离是169 μ Hz,我们已经确定了度为0,1,2和3的模式。我们使用这些频率来估计恒星的平均密度,精确度为0.45%,结合干涉半径,得到质量为0.783 +/- 0.012 M_sun(1.6%)。

英文摘要:

We used HARPS to measure oscillations in the low-mass star tau Cet. Although the data were compromised by instrumental noise, we have been able to extract the main features of the oscillations. We found tau Cet to oscillate with an amplitude that is about half that of the Sun, and with a mode lifetime that is slightly shorter than solar. The large frequency separation is 169 muHz, and we have identified modes with degrees 0, 1, 2, and 3. We used the frequencies to estimate the mean density of the star to an accuracy of 0.45% which, combined with the interferometric radius, gives a mass of 0.783 +/- 0.012 M_sun (1.6%).
